Pet care experience
Your Trustworthy WFH Pet Sitter
Hi there! I’m Maddie, a lifelong animal lover and proud pet parent to two cats, with a special fondness for Australian Shepherds. Having grown up around Aussies, I understand their high energy, intelligence, and need for both mental and physical stimulation. 🐾 I’m committed to providing a safe, reliable, and loving environment where pets feel comfortable and at home. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, cuddles, or calm companionship, I’ll care for them as if they were my own. I work from home, so your pet will have consistent company and attention throughout the day rather than being left alone. I also travel for work only about 10% of the month, allowing for a flexible and dependable schedule. I understand the trust involved in leaving your pet with someone new, and I take that responsibility seriously. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for. ❤️ I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pet and learn more about their routine and personality!

Safety, trust & environment
I provide attentive, dependable care tailored to each pet’s individual needs and routine. I’m comfortable walking dogs of all sizes, ages, and abilities and understand proper sidewalk and walking etiquette. I’m also diligent about communicating updates and following care instructions, including providing oral medications and topical treatments when needed. Most importantly, I treat every pet with patience, kindness, and the same level of care I’d want for my own.
Ratings and reviews
Would highly recommend Maddie! She was very easy to coordinate with and communicative throughout her housesitting stay. Mr Sauce has a few special needs including medication and he was well taken care of!
Maddie is great! Highly recommend!
My dog fell in love with Maddie right away! She can often be nervous about new situations but excitedly pranced up to Maddie's front door in the mornings. I highly recommend Maddie as a sitter!
Maddie did such a good job with Charlie! She was very communicative during his daycare stay and responded promptly when I originally reached out. She followed all the instructions for my anxious dog!
Javi had a great time and had lots of walks!
Madison has watched my cat, Felix, several times! He requires daily medication due to his separation anxiety. When I’m away, she is attentive to his needs and ensures he receives his medication. She updates frequently with how he’s doing, and keeps all his needs met and makes sure he gets some play time. Highly recommend!

Schedule
As a work-from-home consultant, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I have flexibility throughout the workday for walks, drop-in visits, and playtime, and I love using breaks to stay active outdoors. I rarely travel for work, so I can provide reliable daytime care and am happy to house sit when needed.

- Before each visit, I like to learn your pet’s routine, personality, walking habits, feeding schedule, and any special care they may need. I also want to know about anything they’re sensitive or reactive to, their favorite activities and comfort items, and your preferences for communication and updates. My goal is to understand what makes your pet feel safe and comfortable so I can provide care that feels consistent with their normal routine.
